New earphones
Ever walked down the street with your earphones in your ears and then suddenly, one of them pops out of your ear. As you try to pull it back into your ear, the other ear drips and that earphone falls too. Well, these are different in that instead of going into your earlobe they vibrate…
Microscopic Art
NanoArt is an emerging form of artwork in which artists use nanotechnology to create micro/nanosculptures through chemical, physical, and natural processes. To display, and even see these minuscule pieces of artwork, powerful microscopes are used. One pioneer of NanoArt, Cris Orfescu, has created a website used to spread this innovative form of art. Orfescu also…
Máscaras Sensoriais, 1967
These head coverings or “Sensory Masks,” are the work of Lygia Clark, of whom I believe was ahead of her time. Although these masks appear to be somewhat peculiar, to wear one is even more bizarre. I was lucky enough to experience them in 2006,when the M.C.A. held the Tropicalia exhibition. Mrs. Clark created this…
Healthy Rice
It is not to say rice isn’t healthy for you, it’s got plenty of carbohydrates, eh, but bioengineers have spliced some human immune genes into the grain of rice to provide some human proteins in your daily helping of rice. The protein will be harvested from the rice to make medicine for newborns and toddlers…

I am enchanted by the simple beauty of this piece! It is a bridge that has glass beneath the railings that lights up in case one or more people cross. The light that accompanies pedestrians grows…
When Is It Art?

MassMOCA provided funding for Buchel’s ambitious installation Training Ground for Democracy. As costs began to mount, however, (Buchel wanted a burned out 737 fuselage) the museum decided to cancel the…
pitter pat
this installation artist, rafael lozano-hemmer, has produced a few pieces now where public spotlight installations reflect the heart rates of passers by. He embeds sensors on sculptures within the city and as people grab the sculptures – their heart rate is taken. This then inspires the massive robotic system to create the amazing beams of…
Virtual Reality Goggles
Seems that lately motion sensing has become the new “new” technology. First the Wii with its motion sensing remote and nunchuk, then the PS3 with it’s tilting controller, and now these. The Vuzik Virtual Reality Goggles not only give you a heads up display (HUD) right in front of your eyes, but can sense motion….
I saw this an I had to put it up. The idea of a flying car is awesome but the author does have a good point. he says that people can barely drive yet alone try to fly safe. I still wouldn’t mind trying it out some time.
